25 days to the start of WOC 2009



25 Day to go to the start of this years World orienteering champs in Hungary.

The Irish elite team are training hard and trying to stay injury-free in the run-up to the competition.

We are thankfull to Kyle Heron who has joined the team as WOC team manager. Kyle will be doing his best to help and support the Irish team during the week.

Race selections have been made for the team members and are as follows:

Neil Dobbs - Middle and Relay (3rd leg), David Healy - Middle and Relay (1st leg), Colm Hill -Sprint and Classic, Shane Lynch - Sprint and Middle, Ruairi Short - Classic ,Nicolas Simonin -Sprint, Classic and Relay (2nd leg).

Ciara Largey and Rosalind Hussey - Sprint, Middle and Classic.

Following Niamh's injury Ciara and Rosalind are the only runners on the womens team. There is a place on the womens team open for a willing and able orienteer - It would be great to be able to put out a Mens and Womens relay team. If there is a runner out there that you know who may be interested, please let them know that there is a place available to join Ciara and Rosalind on the team.

In the meantime keep an eye out here for updates on the teams progress at the champs.
